5. AI Outputs and No Professional Advice

AI-generated outputs may contain errors, insecure code, unsuitable architecture, inaccurate content, or incomplete legal/compliance logic. Etlaq does not guarantee that generated outputs will be correct, secure, compliant, uninterrupted, or fit for a particular purpose.

Etlaq does not provide legal, tax, accounting, medical, financial, or cybersecurity advice. You should obtain professional review before using Etlaq outputs for regulated, high-risk, or production-critical uses.

7. Third-Party Services and Integrations

Etlaq may integrate with payment, analytics, hosting, database, deployment, AI model, GitHub, and other third-party services. Your use of those services may be subject to their own terms, privacy policies, security practices, limits, and fees.

When you connect or authorize a third-party integration, you instruct Etlaq to exchange the data needed for that integration. You are responsible for the permissions you grant and for complying with third-party terms.

You are responsible for rotating secrets that you expose and for configuring access controls on applications you publish.

11. Privacy and Data Protection

Our handling of personal data is described in the Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and PDPL Compliance notice. If you use Etlaq to process personal data on behalf of your own users or customers, you are responsible for your role as controller or processor under applicable law and for entering any required data-processing terms.

13. Disclaimers

Etlaq is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, uninterrupted operation, error-free service, security, accuracy, and suitability of generated outputs.

14. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Etlaq and its team will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, punitive, or lost-profit damages, or for loss of data, goodwill, revenue, business opportunity, or production availability arising from use of the service.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

Connecting Etlaq to ChatGPT

You may connect your Etlaq account to ChatGPT. You remain responsible for everything done through that connection, exactly as if you had done it in Etlaq directly.

Actions taken through the integration have real effect and real cost. Publishing a project builds it, replaces whatever was previously served at its public URL, and uses your account build allowance. Asking Etlaq to build or change an application consumes your Etlaq credits on the same terms as building inside Etlaq.

You control what the integration may do through the permissions you approve when connecting, and you may disconnect at any time in ChatGPT. Etlaq enforces those permissions on every request and refuses anything outside them.

Etlaq applies limits to how often builds and deployments may be started through the integration, and may adjust those limits to protect the service.

The integration is provided as-is alongside the rest of the platform. We do not control ChatGPT, and your use of it is governed by OpenAI’s own terms.
